The power of playlists…

Playlists are a great way of making lists of your favourite music to suit any mood or occasion.

So how do you create a playlist? It’s simple! Just sign up for an account, create a playlist on your profile page (remember to give it a memorable name) and then browse the site for the free music you want to put in it! Once you’ve found a song, you can click the ‘+’ symbol on the right hand side of the tracklisting – this will add it to your playlist. Do this as many times as your wish (there are no limits on the number of songs you can have in a playlist). To re-order, rename or give the playlist a description, just click the “Organise” button on the playlist page.

So now you have your playlist – well, why not share it with your friends? On We7 you can share the music you love for free – just hit the “Share” button. You’ll then be able to share your favourite free songs with your friends and display it on your blog or webpage in a widget for any of your visitors to play!

We love playlists. So we’ve decided to create a whole new section, dedicated to showcasing the best playlists on We7. Each playlist in the section has a certain theme - whether it's football anthems, Celebrity Big Brother music or songs from this year's BRITs nominees. If you fancy suggesting a playlist to go in this section, leave a comment below with your recommendation and we’ll feature your playlist on this page!

Here's a Motown 50 playlist, which includes some Motown songs which aren't well known, but are still worth listening to!:

Will We7 be adding a feature in the future where members can find out the new music which has been added, like an RSS feed for example. Another good feature would be for members to be able to recommend albums and perhaps there could be an incentive for more people to review music too, so people can find out about new artists & their music.

Hey Soulsupastarr,

Thanks for the playlist! We will feature it on our playlists page in the next couple of weeks.

At the end of this month we will be introducing recent releases on the front page and also on the genre browse pages. I really like the idea of an RSS feed. I will have a think about how easy it is to implement.
